	Invented in 2120, but not able to be installed aboard starships until 2130 due to size and power consumption problems, subspace radio allows a ship to propagate electromagnetic signals through the subspace medium. Subspace radio waves propagate at Warp 9.9997, far faster than the fastest starship, but not always fast enough to allow instantaneous communication with distant locations. Sometimes communications lags of hours or days result, but in most situations any lags are minimal. However, subspace radio waves cannot travel more than 22.65 light-years without degrading to unacceptable levels. Thus, networks of manned and unmanned subspace relay stations are required for communication across the quadrant. No existing or projected Federation technology can overcome this “97/22” limit (though the Borg, at least, seem to be able to use interplexing beacons to project messages farther than 22.65 light-years).

	Many ~~Starfleet~~ communications contain confidential, classified, or secret information which Threat species must not be allowed to overhear. To prevent such breaches of security, a secured channel may be used for communicating. A secured channel uses ~~Starfleet’s~~ advanced encryption algorithms to prevent outsiders from understanding the transmission. Every communication system has a security rating, represented as the penalty to Espionage (Cryptography) Tests made to defeat ~~Starfleet’s~~ encryption or to Shipboard Systems (Communications) or Computer (Data Alteration/Hacking) Tests made to penetrate a ship’s computer systems remotely.

	The accompanying table lists the SU cost, strength, and security rating for various types of communication systems. It includes some basic uprating packages which provide bonuses to Shipboard Systems (Communications) Tests, and security uprating packages which improve the security rating of the communications system. Uprating packages are not cumulative; a ship can only have one basic package and one security package in effect.

	~~Available: [[2372]]~~		Some of the latest Star Fleet vessels incorporate a system which links communications with a small holoemitter array. When used to communicate with another, similarly-equipped vessel, a holocommunications system allows the persons communicating to “see” each other.
